Oh my word could I punch someone? Just because you come from africa or south africa, it doesn't mean you have to be blacK!I'm from South Africa, I'm white, and not a racist like some of you guys out there. Also, that little girl was born in FRANCE. Read. Sorry for the long-ish comment. *gives brownies to everyone*
Just because we're from africa doesn't mean we're black. I live in South afrinca and I'm pretty white also most people I know are white I'm in a school that has plenty of white girls. In Africa (specifically south africa and Namibia) we have a wide range of people, we have black, italian, french, indian, chinese etc, namibai has a lot of germans. The rest of africa is a little more black than south africa but therz still white people
In the movie they're referencing, the main character comes from Africa. When she mentions this to a girl at the school, she asks, "If you're from Africa, why are you white?" And then the girl's friend says, "Oh my god, Karen, you can't just ask people why they're white!"
.
These people aren't racist, just referencing a movie. Hope I helped! ^.^ *passes out brownies*

lmao. This scenario happened in class last year. A lady on a video (white) mentioned feeling out of place in the group because she was from Africa. A girl in class say "That women says she's from Africa, but she is white. Is she like delusional or something" TEACHER" I think its part of a delusion, I'm not sure they don't really go into it." Class uproars is a debate on how to treat her.
Me.."GUYS! There are white people in South Africa.. and you can't just go around asking why people are white."

I get that they are talking about the movie, but it's really a common misconception people have about south africa. My aunt was dating an american and he actually (seriously, not as a joke) asked her if he was gonna have to ride an elephant to get to her house, I dunno I just don't like the stereotypes but maybe I am a little too serious about this. Where in south africa are you guys from?
Once I met a guy in school and he grew up in Africa but he was white, and I asked him if people often referenced Mean Girls when he told them that and he laughed and said yes.
Thank you. Someone who knows the most basic of geography. So I thought that either the whole thing is bullshit or the one that made the photo didn't get their facts staight.
